Bethany's Heart Valve Journal

It has been awhile since my last update. I was able to make an appointment with a new cardiologist, his name is Dr.Ruggeroli, has anyone heard of him? He came highly recommended... I have been having episodes of SVT on a regular basis, they are so frequent and intense that my heart hurts:( I started keeping a detailed journal to take to him.

I will update after I see this new doc, hopefully he will move forward with the ablation! Hope everyone is well!

Hi HV- Just wanted to say thank you to everyone! Reading many of your posts has helped me to stay positive while I am waiting to receive my ablation. The insurance will cover the surgery starting in October 2012. In the meantime, I am still trying to find a doctor that would be willing to do the procedure.

I am in need of an ablation... Yesterday I had three episodes of SVT. I am at the point that I cannot even run up my stairs without having an episode. The tachycardia I am experiencing is putting my bpm over 200. I am scared to do much of anything... Is anyone having these same experiences?
